Exhibiting the iconic gold and black signature color combination, the W-30 is easily identifiable everywhere. The 1979 Hurst/Olds project was unique in that it is the only year H/O that the complete conversion was done at Oldsmobile. Hurst Performance provided the shifters and emblems and Oldsmobile installed them. The paint striping configuration was already an Oldsmobile design so the cars were completed in the Lansing Assembly Plant then shipped to dealers. Oldsmobile combined with Hurst Performance producing the W-30 in ten select years between 1968 to 1988. The 1979 production is the 7th year for the H/O and identified as a W-30 Performance Package. The H/O was built on the Cutlass Calais body and there was a total production run of 2499 with two exterior colors to choose from. 1165 were in Cameo White and 1334 in Ebony Black, both with gold stripes and paint trim. All H/O's had an Oldsmobile 350ci engine and a VIN code "R" to designate that engine. No other Cutlass cars had the Olds 350 engine, therefore, no other Cutlass has the "R" code. The transmission used was a 350 automatic. The interior of the H/O sported Dual-Gate shifter with a brushed aluminum t-handle (a first for H/O shifter use) in the Olds factory console with a small Hurst/Olds emblem applied on the console. The interior was available in Camel Tan Lochland velour, Camel Tan Derma Grain vinyl, Black Derma Grain vinyl or Oyster White Derma Grain vinyl. The rest of the interior was standard factory Calais parts. Distinctive H/O identifiers were the Rallye Pac instrument cluster, sport steering wheel, reclining bucket seats, digital clock, and special aluminum gold-trim 14" rims mounted with white raised letter tires. The special gold accent paint scheme included a gold hood, roof and sport mirrors; W30 decals on the front fenders; gold painted Calais grills; black header emblem with Calais in script in the center and a black emblem with the rocket in the lower portion of the header; white or black tail lamp bezel and rear window tri to match the body color and Hurst/Olds emblems with gold instead of red on the emblem in the sail panel and trunk lid. ***If you are viewing this on Facebook, be sure to visit our website to view all photos.
